    Absurd & unethical. Doesn't represent UK demographics either. Christianity increasingly represented by immigrants - chiefly Africans & Poleshttps://twitter.com/NAChristakis/status/917482316276097025 …

    Balliol bans Christian group from recruiting event. Absurd. Students are strong enough to ignore a table. https://amp.theguardian.com/education/2017/oct/09/anger-as-oxford-college-bans-christian-group-from-freshers-fair …

        London is the only place where Christianity is growing & 2/3rds of the new churches are Pentecostal black majority. http://www.eauk.org/church/one-people-commission/stories/black-and-ethnic-christians-lead-london-church-growth.cfm …

        Last time I checked, 57% of young churchgoers were in London. C of E congregations heavily dominated by the elderly.

        My prediction is that fairly soon, British Christians will stop being predominantly white & it will become racist to criticise Christianity.

        However, the reason Balliol shld not ban Christian groups is not because it's favoured by minority groups but because religious freedom, ffs

        Absurd yes but why unethical? The fair hardly seems the place to promote one religion. How was freedom of religion violated?

        Banned because it was religious. It would also be unethical if only one religion was allowed.

        Don't see an ethical issue if the fair wanted a secular presence especially as the CU were invited to state their view on multi-faith stall.

        I'd see a problem with wanting a secular presence in a university where all ideas should be free to be discussed, even religious ones.

        We must disagree, discuss religion at the right time, in the right place yes. At a freshers fair, other than offering information, why?
